    A few years ago the state of Texas was talking about opening a season on them during water fowl season, much like sand hill cranes.

      But cranes taste good... You'd just have to burry these

          I’m thinking a highly accurate .223
          I've always had 2 trucks. I used one a lot more because of gas mileage. When I would drive in the gate of a fishing lease I had in the truck I drove more often the cormorants would fly away. When I would go in the truck I drove less often, they'd stay around. They do get educated. I guess it was the truck color they were skeered of...

            You just need a good dog to stay at the tanks to keep them out for several weeks.

                You do realize this is not true.

                            Please post a link to the species you are referring to. I see double crested cormorants all the time and they are native. I have no idea what species you are talking about, but am willing to take a look.

                              That is what I was going to say. Get about 300-400 yds out.
